    1  A Revision Checklist is a document that addresses the specific revisions made to the Federal regulations by one or more related final rules published in the Federal Register . EPA develops these checklists as tools to assist States in developing their authorization applications and in documenting specific State analogs to the Federal Regulations.

    2. State-Initiated Revisions

    In addition, West Virginia will be authorized to carry out, in lieu of the Federal program, State-initiated revisions to provisions of the State's program. These State-initiated revisions are related to the adoption and renumbering of provisions throughout the State's hazardous waste regulations. The changes improve the clarity of the State's regulations and provide the necessary conforming changes due to State terms, or which are related to Federal amendments that do not apply to West Virginia. Tables 2 and 3 of this preamble list the updates on 33CSR20, effective July 1, 2020, where the State incorporates by reference per 33CSR20 sec. 1.5 the Federal counterparts in effect on August 21, 2019.
